All Your Days

In the final installment of Season 1 of ‘All Your Days - The Podcast,' there’s a new song in the works. Follow along as “Tomorrow” gets to its first stages. More to come, for that one. And catch a preview of what Season 2 will bring; big moments headed our way. The end of one chapter and the edges of a new story.

At last, the making of the 2022 album ‘All Your Days’ — featuring Matthew Girard (bass, engineer, mixing, mastering) and Richard Adkins (drums and rhythm sequencing). Good chat, including some notes about Joy Division, Stevie Nicks, Karaugh Brown, Frank Ocean, and more. We go all the way down, surfacing the steps, ideas, challenges, and triumphs that came with putting the trio together remotely and making a giant, weird album in the middle of a giant, awful mess.

This week we are in New York in the heart of the pandemic and the national election in 2020. The birth of a record called ‘You Get Your Own Parade’. The birth of a band in a remote world. The conception of a record called ‘All Your Days.’ And just survival in general. Words, sounds, and experiences from deep in the shit. Get yer pod!

We go deep on the strange and powerful journey that was ‘Careful in the Future - The Film’ and then dive into the edges of the precarious project that almost wasn’t — the early recordings for ‘All Your Days,’ which would end up being a different (and sort of) “lost” record entirely. Clips from the sessions that never made the album, plus behind-the-scenes audio from the making of the film, all in this episode.
